Generically speaking... you may have a proportioning valve to bleed as 
well.  Bleed order is usually from furthest away salve to closest to the 
master.  On the 4kq the manual says to do the prop. valve first, and 
last again.

Also, it makes sense to draw out as much fluid from the reservoir to 
start with (then start topping it up with fresh), no point in pumping 
extra cc's of old fluid through the system.
